"B O X E R" is a metaphor for the fight for life, to conquer, overcome and win in your own way. It doesn't matter who you are--we have ALL been there, and we are ALL champions in our own way.
This is one of the first books in a long time that I've been able to feel myself inside of it. In any given poem I was able to relate it back to my own life, and sometimes it's nice to not feel so alone.
